Deck of Cards (ed 6/15)

In much the same way that Jonathon Swift's Gulliver and Lewis Carroll's Alice experienced a skewed sense of proportion and reality, the human subjects in these Life Size photographs struggle to find their place in the compressed and claustrophobic space usually reserved for the miniature.  Such intersections of scale disturb the imagined perfection of a mini-sized fantasy world, making viewers reorient themselves as their natural sense of order is called into question.  These absurd scenarios provoke the viewer to reflect upon the miniature's identity both as surrogate and impostor, object and representation, as well as our relationship to and experience of reality. –Artist statement
